Sneak Peeks - Two simple cards for you!!

(Supplies: Card Base - Unknown, Stampin Up: PP - Sweet Pea DSP Stack, CS - So Saffron, Confetti White, Ink - Old Olive, Taken with Teal, Button - Kiwi Kiss Cordoroy Button, Ribbon - Old Olive 1/4" grosgrain, Punch - Scallop Trim Border, Stamp Sets - Vintage Vogue, Tiny Tags)

This card was made using the new Occasions Mini set "Vintage Vogue" (vine and flower) and the Tiny Tags set (4 you). Both these sets I purchased during the demonstrator preorder and are both the new Clear Mount style. I am very happy to tell you that the images from these new style of stamps are just as clear and crisp as the wood mount sets - because they are still rubber stamps and the same rubber as the wood mount!!

(Supplies: Card base -unknown, Stampin' Up: CS - So Saffron, Confetti White, PP - Sweet Pea DSP Stack,Ink - Old Olive, Pretty in Pink, Stamp Set - Well-Scripted, Punch - XL Two-Step Bird, Scallop Trim Border, Brad - Filagree Flower)

This card I used two of the new punches - XL Two Step Bird and the Scallop Trim Border which will be available FREE in the Saleabration promotion January 5th! The stamp set was again the new Clear Mount style from the Occasions Mini called "Well-Scripted". A very pretty set. There is another similar style set available in the Saleabration promotion that I am really hoping.

Dormant List - Retiring Sets

I know I've been away for a long time and I do apologize. I needed to think out how to deal with the new Stampin' Up agreement and posting my projects. I feel okay about how to do that now and likely have enough projects/cards/scrapbook pages to show you for weeks. I've been busy and doing lots of stuff (mainly cards and am having serious scrapbooking withdrawal) and have four card groups of stuff to show you too!!

For now, here is the list of the Dormant Sets that are retiring as of January 4th. I will update with links slowly over today but wanted to get this up. Today is the last "suggested" day to order to guarantee shipping in time for Christmas so hop to it if you need to order for a present :)

Scrapbook room pictures

Here are my new tables!! Kind of hard to see but a corner and a long. My Ikea rails for my punches, my Becky and Lisa rails for my tools and a Clip It Up for my alpha stickers and bling. I am still working on finishing up so this will be pretty soon.
My expedit 4x4 cube bookcase - still a work in progress! My MM wall unit with ribbon, paints, buttons, flowers and chipboard.
Cards I made in the class at the Scrapbook Carnival in Edmonton this past weekend. Also the ornament card was a make N take from a SU booth. I don't have that set so wanted to try it out!

*BLUSH* Between all the stores at the carnival and another online order... these are all the alpha stickers I picked up in the last 4 days. The top left is Jillybean Soup, then Storytellers, MM and Jenni Bowlin(x3), bottom row are Thickers and the right bottom is Doodlebug.

Sorry, I haven't been posting

I haven't been scrapping much and taking pictures even less. I'm back in the saddle and will be here tomorrow with pictures of my *NEW and IMPROVED* scrap room. I honestly wish I could run out of my office now (I'm at work) and go home to finish organizing that. But I am doing that tonight after my run and promise to post it tomorrow. Hunt me down if I don't!!

I have three sets of cards to share, a sneak peek for November to share and if I don't get a scrapbook page done soon, I may scream uncontrollably. I love doing cards but... I crave doing scrapbook pages. They are my truest obsession (then dark chocolate, then Twilight, then Outlander books, but that is a whole other story)

I hope everyone else out there is happy scrapping!!

Sorry, it's been a while!!

I was away on vacation and now trying to get my head back in the game for work.

But way more fun than that, I am prepping for my Stampers 10 group that is starting September 16th. I have 3 fun cards and/or projects a month and plan on planning/buying/prepping for the first 4 months in the next two weeks. Ambious but necessary as I need (okay, want) the new hostess stamp sets from the Holiday mini and more importantly, I have one out-of-towner (Hey Amy!!) to send stuff too and I am heading her place in early October. Might as well bring it all along.

I am really hoping to work on building my business this year as down the road... it would be great to earn a free trip or cruise!!

Current promotion: FREE buttons (worth $10.95) for purchasing $45 worth of stamp sets from the Growing up section of the Idea Book is on now until August 31st!!

September 1st: The new Holiday Mini comes into effect.
